No Money for Moneymaker

Shamus

Chris Moneymaker raised to 43,000 from middle position, then Ted Forrest reraised to 150,000 behind him. It folded back around, and Moneymaker pushed all in for a total of about 200,000. Forrest quickly called.

Moneymaker {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Forrest {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

As soon as he saw Forrest's cards, a disgusted Moneymaker started walking away from the table even before the flop was dealt. Forrest moved to stop him, but was stopped himself by the flop -- {K-Spades}{J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Both players had flopped sets, a development that might've only added further insult to injury for Moneymaker.

The turn was the {7-Diamonds} and the river the {J-Clubs}, and after starting the day second in chips, Moneymaker goes out ten spots shy of the money in 38th.

Forrest is still stacking his chips, but it appears he now has about 900,000.
